Darkness has come, I’m alone in the night
Hiding my feelings, Out of everyone’s sight
Despair fills my soul, Which as a fact is quite strange
Cause inside feels empty, My feelings have changed
When you left I felt good, Like you wanted me to
I looked deep inside, And there I found you
It felt like you were here
Living in me, Giving me strength
To live life and just be, I felt honored and proud
That you were my dad, That I was there your last days
All the time that you had, Brave and determined
To get through this with pride, To keep the promise
That I made as you died, Forgive me if I fall
I know there will be some bad days, because I loved you so much
In many ways, As a father and friend
Counselor and adviser, There never lived a man
Who could have possibly been wiser, I’m so sad and confused
Like a little lost girl, I feel like an oyster
Without its precious pearl, because that’s what you were
All shinny and bright, Who brightened each day
And chased away night, I’ll never forget
And I’ll always miss you, But we’ll meet again
This just has to be true, With a love as strong as we had
Not even death can keep us apart
